Very often I use mouse in gvim when I select text for copying/pasting/deleting, so my right hand is on the mouse or tablet (which I also use extensively) and left hand is on the keyboard. Now to scroll through a file I always click or drag the scrollbar area. So I've just thought out a way how it would be much easier. It would look something like: - hold down Ctrl key (or some other in the left bottom area of the keyboard) - some indicator appears under current mouse cursor position (like in Firefox after middlebutton is pressed) - move the mouse to the left/right to this indicator - the farther subordinant to the indicator is the mouse cursor the faster is the scrolling
So something similar to Firefox's middle button, but it would be better to bind left/right movement to scrolling, since it is much harder to move the mouse up/down than left/right. I know I can use mousewheel together with Shift key to scroll faster, but here is the problem - on a drawing tablet it is not possible. And mousewheels are very often just broken and it are not very 'ergonomical' imho. What do you think about that? -- -- You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist. Do not top-post!
